Altogether, I've seen a huge improvement. I've onnly noticed one flaw. In career mode you still have to either choose attributes or "go-to" moves, which is impossible to balance if you want to rise in the rankings at a young age. Other than that, I was hoping the striking speed would be more life-like but its still great.

I have Renan Barao 30 years old, 41-0, all by way of KO or TKO i'm 92 overall. I played on advanced but i feel my record and overall dominance (I KOed men such as BJ Penn, Aldo, Benson Henderson etc. with a freaking BW) shows that I need to restart career mode on the next difficulty up. A lot of fun, I might do Palhares next and heel hook everybody

I like how you don't have to train as much. You can only pick two things between fights, only one if you take the higher payout short notice fights. The only thing that takes a lot of time is dealing with those sponsors. I like making caf's of UFC fighters they left out of the game, and then not trying to get the most high ratings I can, just shoot for what I think those fighters rate for real. Takes the pressure off when you can stop at 79 or 82.

I like how in my wee universe Stefan Struve is the undisputed p4p King. Held the HW belt through my entire career. Love the wee off-career fights that go on haha

it's pretty good, but offline is VERY sketchy. I got d/c in my first 2 fights then lost 4 straight purely down to it being impossible to transition while lagging and getting punched. My other loss was to a dude who was Bones and spinning backfist spammed, like with his reach it covers the whole cage. Not fighting anyone who uses Bones again.

I've also noticed how it is pretty hard to finish people online despite them being rocked. Maybe it's just my garbage connection though.

I enjoyed it I hardly ever trained just did auto all the time and got my guy up to level 86 with 100% on standing strikes and kicks. I also like how you can jump weight classes and go to pride. The only thing I didnt like is how it ended so abruptly without warning. I was 29 so I thought I had plenty of time left to upgrade my characters other skills and maybe win a LW title and the next thing I know Joe was talking about mr retiring during my fight and now I got a guy who can't pull of a submission unless the other guy is rocked.
